Ilkley's Oasis Cafe has taken on a massive fundraising challenge.

The project, which employs people with learning disabilities, needs £100,000 to find new, larger premises.

It is run by Churches Together Ilkley (or CTI2000) and needs to move by the time its current lease runs out in July.

The Reverend Stuart Jenkins, Ilkley Baptist Church minister, said: "The Oasis Cafe is a real interface between people with learning disabilities and the rest of the community. That's really important."

Speaking about the move, he added: "It's a spur to going on to doing things bigger and better. We're taking on a huge venture, £100,000, but it will be so good in the end."
